Interstate Commerce.

Mr.. Il. P. Porter, q staff correspondent Of
the Philadelphia Press and one of the most
intelligent observers Of events in Washing
ton, says in his dispatches last week that
to the interstate commerce bill, and that
the probabilities are that the conference
report will be accepted in both houses by
large majorities.
There seems to be mistaken notion
abroad, both with some correspondents and
some papers, which ought to know better,
that amendn ents can be made to the bill
now under discussion. But this is not so
A conference report, such as this interstate
commerce bill is, must be accepted or re-
jected as a whole, and not a word or line
can be altered.
There is an unmistakeable demand for
legislation on this subject, and while the
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN believes that the
''anti-pooling" and the "short haul"
clauses are both wrong, and that in other
respects the bill is not only defective but
in violation of the organic law, it may be
that members of Congress who agree with
the REPUBLICAN, will vote for the bill rather
than sacrifice their political futures, trust.

Free Sugar and Free Tobacco.

The time has come for some Republican
leader to introduce q bill to place sugar on
the free list and remove the internal tax
from tobacco.
Every business man knows that profit
is charged not only upon the original pur-
chase money, but upon the expenses OF
transportation and any duty or tax.
An invoice Of goods, costing S100, with
freight, insurance, exchange, and duties or
tax, amounting to 800 more, is entered
upon the merchants books as costing 5000,
and the profit Is charged upon the whole
In addition to this, IL requires double the
capital to handle the same amount of goods.
The delays at the port Of entry, ware
house, carriage, custom brokerage, and in
terest charges add to the cost which the
consumer has to pay upon one of the great
bulky staples Of food.
Place sugar on the free list, the consumer
is relieved Of all these items, which, with
the duties, double the cost, and upon all OF
which profit is charged.
reduction of the duty on sugar and
the internal tax on tobacco does not relieve
those two acknowledged necessaries Of life
of these vexatious charges.
1t is economical legislation to remove the
entire tax rather than part, when the
financial conditions and the protection Of
our Industries not only permit but demand
that ~ should be done. In our condition
free sugar is protection to free American
labor.

The Republican majority In the United
States Senate has been reduced by recent
elections to ve'J narrow margin. 1t be.
hooves the Republican members OF the
legislatures in the states where there Is
Republican majority to select men who are
not only able as leaders and statesmen, but
thoroughly loyal to Republican principles
and the Republican organization. Any man
protesting to be Republican, aspiring to
a seat in the Senate of the United States,
that does not urge his friends to 20 int o
caucus ,and submit to the judgment
OF Republican caucns, puts a
cloud upon his title as a Republican.
1t has been reported that Senator Van
Wyck, Of Nebraska, will not permit his
friends, who are called Van Wyck Repub-
licans, to enter Republican caucus. II
this be true, the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,
has no hesitation in advising Republicans
in Nebraska, as well as everywhere else, to
place none on guard who has ever fal.
tered in trying times like these to keep Re-
publicans in power. If Senator Van Wyck
advises his friends to 60 into the Republ-
can caucus and abide its results, then his
name should be received like those of other
Republicans, and his claims fairly judged.
